Nowadays people are obsessed with the idea of being attractive. They try to do everything to look like top models and pop stars. Men and women go to the gyms, visit beauty salons and, of course, follow different weight loss diets. Nobody wonders whether it is healthy or not. Some people claim that diets are very harmful while others argue that they make people healthier and more beautiful. I would like to explain my point of view on it.
In my opinion, some people exaggerate the harm of diets. Firstly, they can be balanced and healthy, containing proteins, fats and carbohydrates. These are the main components of healthy nutrition. Moreover, millions of people all over the world suffer from obesity. Loss weight diets are necessary for their lives. In other way, they can die of liver diseases. Thirdly, diets make people more organized because being on a diet suggests following a schedule.
Some people argue that loss weight diets are harmful and they have a point. To start with, people choose diets and do not take into consideration the peculiarities of their organisms. This way they do not get enough vitamins and minerals. It can lead to serious diseases. Besides, some people confuse diets with starvation. They stop eating and suffer from anorexia.
To sum up, there are different points of view on this problem. I believe that following a diet is a good way to be healthy but people should be more accurate choosing the best ones for them.
